&NewLine;Soophie Nun Squad was formed in 1992 in Little Rock&comma; Arkansas&comma; by four
&NewLine;junior-high and elementary-school students&comma; and has since grown to a membership of
&NewLine;twelve&comma;scattered across the United States but still centered in Little Rock&period;
&NewLine;Their first show was none other than the back lawn of the Arkansas Governor's Mansion
&NewLine;in April 1993&period; Soophie released its first demo tape in 1994&comma; and has since releasedthree
&NewLine;full-length albums&comma; a split LP with Abe Froman&comma; two 7"s&comma; and has appeared
&NewLine;on many compilations&period;
&NewLine;
&NewLine;The group functions&comma; in a very literal way&comma; as more a family unit than a
&NewLine;band of friends-- some move across the continent&comma; some marry each other&comma; some are
&NewLine;related&comma;all exploring personal interests and passions&comma; always returning two or
&NewLine;three times a year to create together&comma; to push those ideas out&comma; to bounce around a bit&period;
&NewLine;
&NewLine;So expect sometimes-humiliating audience participation&comma; call-and-response
&NewLine;parts&comma; rolling around on the floor with the stupidest clothes you can possibly
&NewLine;find&comma; surrounded by all your favorite people in the world&period; Jubilation&period;
&NewLine;Soophie expects only that&comma; at all times&period;
